London is a magical place which has intrigued people for more than 2,000
years, and never is this more apparent than in the past 130 years
following the invention of the moving image.
Do you want to follow in the footsteps of Paddington, James Bond and
Dorian Gray? Do you want to kiss in front of the blue door? Or look for
the tomb of the resurrected Lord Blackwood? Or do you want to know where
Richard Burton lived? Or where you can actually buy jewelry which was in
the movies?
If you do, then you're in the right place.
London has been a draw for filmmakers for decades, and this book guides
you through the locations, in the shadow of some of your favorite
movies.
Take a tour by movie, go on a movie pub crawl, a leisurely stroll
through cemeteries with connections to the movies or create your own
tour by postcode. This book will allow you to visit new parts of London
but with the familiarity of a well-loved film.
With more than 500 movie locations from 91 films covering more than six
decades of movie making and more than 100 images, this book will have
something for everyone and will show you London in a new, sparkling,
glamourous light.
